If you use Shopify POS at more than one address, then you can set the current location of your Shopify POS device. This makes sure that you apply the right taxes to your in-person orders and that you can track the orders placed at each physical location. The selected location’s inventory count is updated whenever a product is sold or restocked on Shopify POS.

If a product has a tax override applied to it, then the tax override rate is used instead of the tax rate based on the device's location.

Note

Whenever you install the Shopify POS app on a device, make sure that you select your location so that the correct tax rates are applied.
